Ruffles and Onion Dip

“It’s not fancy but it will get devoured. Or visit the link for a homemade version.”

“my paternal grandma made onion dip using this, which I’ve grown to love. I was a helluva good french onion dip loyalist for years because my maternal grandma beat my other grandma to the punch on getting me hooked. once a year I will buy both and alternate dipping chip”

“Ruffles + sour cream + Lipton Onion Soup Mix = summer perfection. also excellent on Christmas Eve with champagne.”

“A perfect, beloved food. Do not try to make it fancy, do not buy fancy chips, just mix the packet into the sour cream and bring it to the party.”

“Bring it to the bbq”

“If you’re going store-bought Dean’s is the only option. I won’t hear any arguments about that; the jarred stuff in the chip aisle tastes like ass and the Helluva Good tastes too healthy. If you’re going homemade, a packet of Lipton Onion Soup Mix in one container of sour cream. That’s it. I do think it’s best if you make it fresh, so I’m not afraid to show up to a party with my own spoon and do a whole bit about “making it tableside” but it’s not awful if you mix it before you leave the house. For chip choices I’m partial to Vitner’s or UTZ but if those are too regional then Ruffles will get the job done.”

“Plain Greek yogurt single serves and a shake of this and sweet potato chips and it's basically health. Or ruffles and sour cream if you're feeling invincible!”

“Instant classic, no notes.”
